I am currently part of the PcET Team working in Newport City Campus and my role is course leader on the FdA Learning Support in Further, Adult and Vocational Education. My pathway into education began with my own studies in higher education as a mature student. This sparked within me a passion for teaching and learning and an interest in how life experiences can add value to your education. My first role within this university began over ten years ago as a learning support assistant for university students with varying additional learning needs. After completing my PGCE in Further Education, I worked within work-based learning across different departments including traineeships, apprenticeships, and curriculum design. I have also enjoyed experiences within community education and engagement. I have many areas of interest but have always had a keen interest in the development of an individual. This takes me down many areas of study including psychology, sociology, history, and philosophy.
